Andy Burnham would have made a far better Leader for Labour than Keir Starmer, BUT Andy made his choice, and Manchester has been the better for it. Good luck Mayor Burnham, for the term ahead.
I will never vote for "THIS!" Tory government and never for Sunak. I am in deep shock at the state that our country the UK is in and the damage the conservative government has done, especially from The Boris Johnson era
Was hilarious watching Kuenssberg trying to find a “bad night for Labour” angle the other night. She’s not a journalist, she’s a Tory party spokeswoman!
I am glad that the Greens and LibDems did well in the local elections. The two main parties are far too complacent and do not want to do the things that the public want them to do. We need proportional representation so we can get away from this undemocratic two party system.
You wouldn't feel that way if you had the freaky Greens calling the tune as we have here in Scotland. More concerned about gender politics than the NHS.
You have forgotten that the central government LibDems were part of the coaltion government that brought us Austerity, the Austerity that paved the way for Brexit. I haven't forgotten that Clegg and the LibDems did that, and I haven't forgiven them.
To the people who think ‘Asians’ voted for khan: All asians are not people from ‘isl*m’.. people from India, Srilanka, and other non-isl*mic countries vote for tories if you don’t know.. The people who come here on a mission to make this an isl*mic state mostly vote for labour. Asia is not a country, it’s a continent just for convenience to refer in text books..
i was gonna make a "facts do not care about your feelings" joke, but im too busy giggling that Count Binface beat Nick Scanlon by 4k votes. a literal anthropomorphised trash can got more votes than Nick Scanlon
ULEZ is approved by the majority of the people of London, it's only a minority of whitee that have an issue because of the skin tone of the mayor. Suk it up Nazis

Sunak threw the local Conservatives under the bus by not calling a GE. Quite a price to stay in government for a few more months. Still, we have not seen a no confidence vote within the Tory party. This is somewhat surprising given that the Red Wall Tories must realise they have nothing to lose at this point. They will go down just like the local Tories unless something changes drastically. Sunak will not bring that change.
Is this another opportunity for you to interview ReformUK again for absolutely no justifiable reason while ignoring the huge success of the Green Party. Why not? Thats how your Election Special went. 🙄🙄🙄
Exactly. It make it obvious how biased the billionaire-owned right-wing media are when they shower so much attention on Reform despite the fact those swivel-eyed loons have yet to win a single seat, while barely mentioning the greens, Lib Dems, etc. in comparison.
Because the Green Party is a party made up of hypocrisy and entitlement.They only get any votes as protest votes .They have just replaced the Monster Raving Looney Party .
Don’t worry, Ben Habib, Hamza Yousuf, Sadiq khan are all British and will serve you all better. Sunak is a non-violent, a practicing Hindu, non-British, and moreover he is a multimillionaire’s son-in-law which makes him less likeable to your taste. He’s too brown to be a British. Good luck to Londonistan and Britainistan 👍
Why cant tories just be honest and say "we fucked up" wish labour luck and try helping the entering government for the people they couldnt care less and 14 years later its still "labours fault" 😅 stop lying
Largely because to them it isn't a f*ck up. The poor (and even the middle class) have become poorer while the mega rich rake in more than ever and pay less tax. Public services have been slashed and funds funneled to private associates of Tory politicians and donors. Conservatives have been vastly successful for those they represent. They've done everything they were meant to do. The only thing they didn't manage to get away with was the Truss plan.
What's your evidence that Labour aren't every bit as supportive of Israel as the Tortes? Starmer has frequently expressed his support for Israel. He literally said it had the right to starve the people of Gaza. He has done events with openly racist Israeli ministers and ambassadors. Israel has its hooks in Labour every bit as much as it does I the Tories. Zionism is very much a bipartisan cause these days.
I think one must have a very easy life if they can afford to cast their vote on one single issue that has zero effects on the life of British citizens.
All brits must have an eady life when they voted ,cameron ,may and johnson and rejected labour when they would have helped the nhs.education housing and employment.why do the alectorate have such low standards.at least the muslims have pricipals@pansepot1490
Very defeatist. If you look at wait times for the NHS, they are record lows under Labour, record highs under the Tories. Voting makes a huge difference.
Andy Steet lost him his job the tramline in wolverhampton had to be relayed 3 times through incompitance and that is just one of his failures , never should have been an area mayor in the first place just another layer of taxpayer funded governance

Rishi Sunak and David Cameron should understand that this is a public verdict against the genocide in Gaza and wasting billions of dollars on the Ukraine war.
14 years of austerity pushing the middle class to poverty, lets hope this is a sign of people finally realising that voting tories won’t make them richer or wealthy like them, to the contrary, no social mobility, just falling into slavery work poorly paid while they continue to become wealthier.

Even their voter suppression tactics cant stop the tidal wave of anti tory sentiment. Unless you're boris, then the voter suppression tactics actually worked. 😂

His polls are the lowest of every mayoral candidate. This once great city built by the indigenous British people who made it an extremely prosperous city. But alas! The city we once knew, is no more - a city rife with violent crime from acid attacks to serial knife violence - a city with the highest crime rate in the world with an illegitimate nonentity occupying the mayor's office whose clique members falsified ballot papers to scam this divisive individual in - the man who takes his lavish privileges for granted - the very people whom he projects his unwarrantable racism on - the white people who worked hard for those privileges.. His rancid ideology is as welcome as an asteroid is to this planet. Now that this illegitimate fraud who has no connection with us whatsoever has usurped the mayor's office again, London doesn't have a prayer. He didn't "win". It's a total scam - you see, members of his clique falsified ballot papers to scam the likes of him in. It's because they're a persuasion of liars.
Jess Phillips saying this is the first time shes had a result she never knew the outcome of is probably the most honest thing shes ever said, she knew outcomes necause of labour vote rigging
US and and EU including the UK. Said Ukraine occupation is unacceptable from the first day. But Palestine occupation for 76 years is acceptable? Double standard.

Why would they be popular? They are in opposition and have been out of government for 14 years. They haven’t had the power to do anything that would make them popular. They are going to win because they are not the Tories. Once they’re in power we’ll see whether they can become popular.
The Conservative party is a broard church thats excatly what we are all sick of hearing. indicating right and turning left has become the Tory way absolutely useless.
Not interested what party they represent just interested in the quality of the job they do and Andy Street has done a decent job, I always fear the worst when the voters base their votes on what party the candidate represents rather than how well they would carry out the job alternatively they just vote “for a change” and just hope for the best!

If a billion Muslims voted in the UK elections, I'd demand acrecount too! Considering there is only 65 million people in the country ! Ya fecking muppet !
Jess Phillips would be lucky to get a job in a Birmingham chip shop if she wasn't in politics, and God only knows who voted for her to be a Labour candidate in the first place.
Why can’t we get rid of all parties and just vote for individuals and anyone standing up must have grown up in the area not some Eaton school guy born in London standing in Essex.
Because English people like voting for people who went to Eton and Oxbridge as they somehow think they are their betters. England is a nation of cap-doffers who like to be looked down upon (among other things) from a great height by posh nobs.
If Andy Street loses the West Midlands Mayoralty, he will always be able to cry on Sir Michael Fabricant's shoulder and dry his tears on his draylon hair!

1508 the difference- just goes to show the importance of every vote. The Tories will be seething as they tried their best at gerrymandering - well that turned out well 😂
@@zivkovicable people don’t know what the winning margin will be when the cast it. In councils, seats etc where they are predicted to be tight/swing seats it is particularly important to get out. 1508 represents roughly 0.25% of al valid votes cast. If just a few hundred of those people hadn’t turned up, stuck with the incumbent or voted differently the result would have been different. This result is the ultimate example of how important it is to vote as you can’t be sure of the win unless you do. Right now there will be a few Andy Street/Tory would-be voters that stayed at home presuming the win that will be kicking themselves
MORE ISLAMPHOPIA IN THE COMMENT PLEASE DON'T BE BUSSY ABOUT HIS RELIGION BUT TALK ABOUT WHAT HE HAS BEEN DOING WETHER IT IS GOOD OR NOT FOR THE COUNTRY
